Call for Papers

For many decades, information technologies have been at the center of innovation and transformation of business, the economy, and our society. Technological advances have always had two sides, one representing massive positive potential and the other posing severe threats and challenges. The newer generation of technologies---from digital platforms to augmented reality and metaverse to blockchains and NFTs to generative AI---are no different. WISE 2023 invites research submissions that offer fresh insights regarding the development, deployment, diffusion, and impact of information technologies, particularly in relation to their economic environment, incentives, and markets. This may involve analyzing how economic incentives shape the behavior of stakeholders within the information technology ecosystem, including firms, consumers, governments, and other actors, and examining the role of the economic context in which information technologies operate. We are interested in research on market structures, business models, organizational structures, regulatory frameworks and policy environments that lead to responsible, safe, and ethical deployment of technologies. This can also include investigating the effects and consequences of information technologies on various aspects of the economy and society, such as productivity, innovation, employment, market dynamics, as well as social, cultural, ethical, and policy implications. We are open to high-quality research based on a variety of methodologies (e.g., theoretical, empirical, and experimental) that cover the above topics, as well as other fundamental areas of research in the economics of information systems, including but not limited to:

Submission Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts, with a maximum of five (5) pages, 12pts font, double-spaced, including text, references, figures, and tables. The first page should only be an abstract with fewer than 300 words along with title and authors (this does not count towards 5-page limit) of their work for presentation at the conference. Submissions should be made in a PDF format. Please submit abstracts online at the EasyChair submission portal and be sure to indicate whether submitted work is student-led (to be considered for the best student paper award).

Submission Restrictions

Authors can have only one presenting role in the program. No individual shall have more than two papers as a co-author in the program. We request that you work with your co-authors and submit your best work


To minimize repeated exposure of the same paper, we also ask that authors not submit work that has also been submitted for consideration at ICIS 2023 and WITS 2023. We also ask that you not submit work (conditionally) accepted or forthcoming at a journal.

Content Considerations

WISE does not assume copyright over accepted work and does not publish formal proceedings. Accepted extended abstracts included in the program will be posted unless otherwise requested by the submitting author.
